Programme summary

We are in the next Industrial revolution and the challenge faced by graduates is to succeed in an age of automation. There is no aspect of modern life unaltered by information processing engines. Examples include teaching (online learning and assessment), automotive (driverless cars and electronic control systems), the economy (high-speed automated trading), shopping and entertainment (virtual assistants and recommendation engines), health (automated diagnostics and non-invasive body scanning) and the digital humanities. The principles enabling the design of this new wave of products are embodied in the discipline of Information Engineering.
